The report card
Best for estimates and proposals for contractors
Estimate Rocket does estimates, job tracking and invoicing for contractors, from $139 a month for 3 full users after a 30-day trial. It runs in the browser only, with offline use still in development, and extra users and a setup package cost more.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C | $139 a month for 3 full users, about $46 each, then $259 for 7 and $359 for 15. A mid-range price for the category. Extra full users are $79 each on the lowest plan. |
| Free plan and trial | D | A 30-day free trial is the only free offer, and no free plan is listed. |
| Features | C | Estimates, interactive proposals, scheduling, job costing, invoicing and reports. The listing says offline access is still in development. |
